## Resource

Episode 7-SHAFT (1971) According to the legendary Isaac Hayes, John Shaft is a “Bad Mutha” as well as being a “sex machine to all the chicks,” whilst also being a “complicated man… who will risk his neck for his brother man.” But is the 1971 Blaxploitation classic that bears his name any good? While fully and freely conceding Shaft’s status as a cinematic cultural landmark, Adam suspects that the film itself, (to quote John Shaft), might actually be a little bit “Shitty!” What does Punching Up’s own Complicated Man, Damian think?Tune in and find out. Can you dig it? Although respectful to the legacy and talent of Shaft’s iconic leading man Richard Rountree, this episode was recorded before the great man’s passing.
